Formatrica — Changelog (Free)
What's new in the free edition (wordpress.org). Pro-only changes are tracked in a separate changelog.
1.1.2 — 2026-07-15
- Fixed a submission error on forms with a radio field. Submitting any form containing a radio field failed with a server error (500); submissions now validate normally.
- Fixed the FriendlyCaptcha widget failing to load. A script conflict stopped the widget from rendering on the public form.
- Drag-and-drop now inserts fields where you drop them. Dragging a field from the palette previously appended it to the end of the form regardless of position; clicking a palette tile still appends.
- Fixed the field-palette search freezing after a field had been dragged into the canvas.
- The Hidden field gained a Value input in the builder, and no longer offers Placeholder/Required options that could never apply to an invisible input.
- Stored email-delivery API keys show their stored-key placeholder again after reopening the builder. The keys were always preserved — they only looked unset.
- Fixed white form accent colour on some themes. On themes that didn't provide a usable accent colour, the form's accent could resolve to white — making the submit button and focus outlines invisible. Forms now fall back to a readable colour.
- Fixed user-registration confirmation emails. Verification emails now use the email delivery provider you configured, instead of falling back to the default WordPress mailer.
1.1.1 — 2026-07-10
- Two- and three-column layouts are now free. Arrange fields side by side and set each field's width, right from the builder.
- Live block preview. The Formatrica block now shows a live preview of your form in the editor.
- Submissions screen improvements. Added an Export CSV button to the toolbar and the option to mark entries read or unread.
- Fields add to the bottom. Fields added from the field panel now appear at the bottom of the form.
- Compact colour pickers with an inline hex field on the settings screens.
- Fixed a fatal error that could occur when activating the plugin.
- Security hardening. Protected CSV export against spreadsheet formula injection, stopped submission error responses from revealing internal details, and hardened outbound webhook requests against redirect-based SSRF.
1.1.0 — 2026-07-09
- New field types: URL, Number, Range, Date & Time, and Color.
- Per-field validation rules for finer control over accepted input.
